Theoretic in a sentence as an adjective

Does Gruber ever add any real information in an information theoretic sense? He seems to be on Apple's side 100% of the time.

They first asked [3], in a game-theoretic way, whether the entire situation isn't a bit too, well... obvious.

From a game theoretic perspective where no parties can be held accountable, being a scammer or hacker will always yield higher pay-offs. This is why Bitcoin will tear itself apart.

Ok, There is certainly nothing wrong with this advice for CEOs, but the question goes begging as to wether or not such a "game theoretic" outcome is stable if the strategy is pursued by a broader set of employees. One clue, of course, is in the original story...

Tactical voting basically means you have a game-theoretic incentive to vote in a way that differs from your true desires. IIA basically means that if Gore would win a 2-man election against Bush, adding Nader to the race should not make Bush the winner.

Pseudo-random, I guess, but the output of a simulation of a chaotic system is highly compressible and thus not random in the information theoretic sense.

But what incentive do they have to do that when their reward is conspiracy-theoretic nonsense about how NSA has their TLS keys and 3rd party contractors are used to keep them from "lying" when they say NSA has no direct access?

Number-theoretic public-key crypto is terrifying. But then: Prefer conventional discrete-log-based systems over elliptic-curve systems; the latter have constants that the NSA influences when they can.

The top partners might want to stick with the firm through a rough patch, but they have an enormous game-theoretic incentive to jump ship because if the firm does implode, the folks that don't leave will be left holding the bag. [2] Practice areas ebb and flow, so you need enough lawyers to support diversified counter-cyclical practices and to be able to cross sell clients internally.

Special offer: if you're wondering what the day-to-day of our work is and want to learn some interesting things about breaking crypto, mail "sean" at Matasano and Sean will send you a series of cryptographic exercises, 40+ in total, ranging from CS101 stuff through block cipher attacks to number theoretic crypto.

The modeling exercise herein is basically attempting to use a game theoretic model to test out some really dumb/simplified models of cooperation and whether the behaviors observed approximate anything approaching what our intuitions might say is moral behavior, up to and including an 'eigenjesus' and 'eigenmoses' up against tit_for_tat bots and the like.

It's not just number theory; it's a web of interlocking state machines implementing the TLS protocol, which itself depends on a variety of different marshalling formats for the number theoretic parameters, built on the shifting sands of optimizations for different machines, all evolved over the the course of ~15 years, starting from a package that was, literally, Eric Young's "teach myself C" project.
